What is Wheel Alignment?

Wheel alignment, also referred to as tire alignment, is the adjustment of the angles of your vehicle’s wheels to ensure they are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other. Proper alignment is essential for maintaining optimal handling, tire wear, and fuel efficiency. When your wheels are properly aligned, your vehicle drives straight, with minimal resistance and tire wear.

Causes of Wheel Misalignment

Several factors can lead to wheel misalignment:
  • Road Hazards
Potholes, curbs, and rough road surfaces can knock your wheels out of alignment.
  • Worn Suspension Components
Over time, components of your vehicle’s suspension system may wear out, affecting wheel alignment.
  • Driving Habits
Aggressive driving, such as hard cornering or frequent hard braking, can contribute to premature wheel misalignment.
  • Vehicle Modifications
Alterations to your vehicle’s suspension, such as lowering or lifting, can affect wheel alignment.

Signs Your Vehicle Needs Wheel Alignment

Look out for these common signs indicating your vehicle may need a wheel alignment:
  • Uneven Tire Wear
Misaligned wheels can cause uneven wear patterns on your tires, such as excessive wear on the inside or outside edges.
  • Vehicle Pulling
If your vehicle pulls to one side while driving on a straight road, it may indicate misaligned wheels.
  • Steering Wheel Off-Center
A steering wheel that is off-center when driving straight suggests misalignment.
  • Vibration or Shaking
Vibrations or shaking felt through the steering wheel or vehicle body can be a sign of alignment issues.
  • Squealing Tires
Misaligned wheels can put additional stress on tires, leading to squealing noises, especially during turns.

Real People, Real Reviews

“Brian over at E&G went above and beyond to get my work/family truck back on the road! Just to name a few, they replaced the timing chain, O2 sensor, phasers, and the list goes on and on! I was told that some of these parts were tough to find, and they were able to track them all down. While the repair was being done, they gave me a loner vehicle as well! Highly recommend!!!”
